      From the side the ‘seat’ kind of looks like the unicorn gargoyle’s seat…but the figure seems too smooth–not to mention the amatuer paint job. I’ve been ‘out of the game’ for a long time though so I don’t know what all has/hasn’t been produced over the years.

        Looks like it is just re-painted with thick paint. Why don’t you ask for a picture of the bottom? I don’t have an anonymous email to use, but I am curious to see if it has our pad. It is not one that gets knocked off much.

        Thanks.

          Oh wow… That piece is still floating around huh? I remember that being on ebay a couple of years ago.

            Is this for real? The pad looks real, but the sculpt doesn’t.

            I bet that is one that someone put outside and then repainted. Rain will eat them away like that. Looks kinda cool.

              There is a very strange looking piece that keeps showing up on eBay. I can’t find a way to post a picture here so I am posting the link. I will try to send an email to John about this, but I want to make sure that someone knows about it since it keeps being offered on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Windstone-Editions-Retired-Bat-Cat-Gargoyle-Rare-/201547137895?hash=item2eed254367:g:jmMAAOSwKtVWzhNq

                I think it has been posted before. It is probably just a repainted cat gargoyle. We never painted any like that, to my knowledge.

                  Hopefully this works. Is this person connected to Windstone?

                    It looks as though someone has taken the Windstone photo of the Rainbow Hatching Emperor and used it to make his (or her) merchandise.

                    You should report this to John john@windstoneeditions.com

                    Edit – on a quick search I did not see any other Windstone images, but this is not the only copyrighted design that this person has “borrowed”.

                      Yah, I thought it looked weird but wasn’t sure because seller is located pretty close to them in Tacoma. Red flag. They don’t even state Windstone anywhere in the ad. I will email him.

                        It’s good that you spotted this! The seller is also using work by Nene Thomas and Anne Stokes, and those are only the images I recognized.

                        Today I was checking in to my Etsy shop account, and I saw a featured listing of a Sitting dragon listed on another shop owners store:
                        https://www.etsy.com/listing/232040781/mythical-dragon-statue-11-sculpture-home?ref=shop_home_active_18

                        It looks too much like Windstones Male Dragon/crossed with perhaps a Keeper PYO. I thought it would be a good idea to bring it to both the forum’s, and John’s attention.

                        What do you all think? …I think it is “suspicious”. …I hope I am wrong. 🙁

                        I think i vaugly remember seeing that same cast in candles and cement in the past. I’m pretty sure ive seen it on etsy once before. I would email john about it.

                          I didn’t email – the address here looks like it’s for the old site so I’m not sure it’s good anymore. This is listed as “maybe by Pena” but looks nothing like it to me:

                            Ok so I am unsure if this particular eBay seller has an army of gothic unicorn white sculptures but I compulsively watch eBay Windstones daily and this is the 4th or 5th gothic white unicorn they have sold successfully. I just thought it odd that someone would have so many of the same sculpture & color and be selling them for around $60 (shipping included in that total) 142020223806 is the item number on the one currently posted by Rocksgoldandsilver. Could they be knock offs?

                            The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed.
